and the cycle of hate and fear continues

Obviously not. Could be more planned attacks on the way, info etc. I'd rather have the government meeting about it instead of just sitting around.michaelP4

Just saw a video of it on the news. They literally stood there proud as punch until the police arrived. I hope they die slow and painful deaths.

BBC News: A man has died and two are injured after police responded to a reported machete attack in south-east London. 1744: Nick Robinson Political editor This is being treated as a serious terrorist attack by Islamist extremists on the streets of Britain. 1741: Nick Robinson Political editor Senior Whitehall sources have told the BBC the Woolwich attackers are thought to have tried to film their attack whilst shouting "Allahu Akbar" - God is Great. The men were said to have been of Muslim appearance. Just heard about this now. Government has called an emergency meeting.michaelP4

Had he used a GUN, I'm guessing a dozen people would have been injured and/or killed.

Thank goodness for gun laws over there.

Yes, I'm using this as an example of why gun laws/restrictions are a good thing - to prevent psychos from doing more damage.

stay classy muslims

Well that's just it. They stood there and tried to justify their actions to a crowd of people.

And why does the government need an emergency meeting. Can't the police just arrest the guy and be done with it. What are they going to do, legislate Machete's? ferrari2001

[QUOTE="Yusuke420"] While revenge isn't the answer, I hope they get the trial and sentance portion over with fairly quickly.

It's called making an example. Getting to spend the rest of your life in some cushy jail is not comeuppance.

People only care about terrorist attacks only if they happen in the US.Nengo_Flow

You're darn straight.

That's really weird. They still had weapons in their hands, they just didn't use them. It's like they wanted to target one person and that was it.

Oh, that's lovely...

Multiculturalism at it's finest.

can you imagine if terrorists decided to just carry out small attacks like that on a daily basis? it would be pretty hard to pick them up beforehand.

misleading title...

sad, dont get me wrong.  But I was worried it was something major.

Not too long ago in San Jose a homeless guy with a samurai sword killed a homeless woman.  The police arrested the guy.  No national emergency was called.

Congrats on letting the terrorists win.

Okay England . . you know what to do now right?

Apologize to the muslims and let a million more of them into your country.

That strategy seems to be working well for you.

If he had a gun, this wouldn't have happened.

Technically I suppose you are correct, but by overusing the word "terrorist" and all associated words for such relatively petty crimes, we diminish their meaning.

This was a murder.  Murder is motivated by all manner of different things.  Religion, lust, money, greed...the list goes on.  So the guys were Arab or Muslim...does that make it an act of terror? Does a white man killing a black man make it a hate crime?  I don't think so, but that's just my two cents.

Likewise, murderers also spread fear.  Summer of Sam ring a bell? Or what about when a murder occurs in a small town, and it is a day or two before they catch the guy? Terrorism, or a murder?

I just feel that "Terrorism" requires a certain grandness to it.  I know that is not really an appropriate word, but if the attack is not orchestrated by an organization with a clear goal, funding, political structure, and instills a sense of fear and terror not just in the immediate area, but in most of the world.

This did nothing of the sort.  I feel bad for the victims, obviously, but do I feel afraid? No.

Europe, Australia, and North America seriously need to re-think their policies on Islamic immigration.  It's way past time.

That ITV footage was rather chilling. The way he spoke so calmly as his hands shined red with blood. There are some things the mind will never forget and that is one of them

And Europe will continue to bring in undesirables from the Middle East in the name of so-called "diversity" and multiculturalism. When will they learn?
